Proctorio (Online Proctoring)
Proctorio is primarily used for courses and programs with documented accreditation requirements for proctoring. Faculty may submit a request and supply any documentation (see below).
About Proctorio

Proctorio integrates with Canvas courses by adding an automated proctoring system that lets the instructor set controls for each exam.
Proctorio can monitor audio and video, and more. The Lock Down Options provide a secure browser session, including:
- prevent web usage
- prevent new browser tabs
- limit exam to a single screen
- disabling printing
- disable screen grabs
- prevent redistribution of your exam
About Authentic Assessment
Faculty are highly encouraged to consider adopting and incorporating methods of authentic assessment rather than automated remote proctoring, unless it is academically required.
